The Sigma AF APO 170-500mm f/5.0-6.3 $385
This is the Sony / Minolta mount. It\'s in great shape. There might be a dust spec or two but overall very clean! Certainly nothing that affects images! I believe this model is aspherical as well! I bought it in a heartbeat for the same price as above in exactly the same condition. No scratches that I can see anywhere. The AF on this lens is a tad slow as it\'s two versions back and only the newe$t version has USM. I tested it on the Sony A900 and it could track anything within reason. Running dogs, small birds, etc. I guess if there\'s a hawk flying directly toward you from 15m away it will miss the focus in the 2 seconds it takes for the bird to fly from there to directly over your head. But when it only needs to make small-ish adjustments for things further away it\'s plenty fast enough. It would be very fine to track a football player or a race car from the bleachers with.
Includes both caps, hood, and semi-hard case (all original). See Images below.

Nikkor AF Micro (Macro) 105mm F2.8D $385
Excellent condition macro lens. Goes to 1:1 without extension tubes. No scratches anywhere. Non-VR version. IQ comparable to the newer version, arguably better - most macrographers familiar with this lens claim this version is the sharpest among all since the first and unto the latest - thus why I got me a copy! There might be a dust spec or two but nothing visible to the naked eye and nothing that affects images even at the closest focusing distance!
Includes both caps - no box. See images below.
